It would also give them more time to focus on their insider trading.

YES! Very under reported on.

Jon Stewart and The Daily Show did 1 show only on how those who were elected were exempt from insider trading laws, like a decade ago. I always wondered why not more since they dwelt on all the other shit.

They passed some kind of law against it, but I don't know if it actually had any teeth or is enforced.

Similarly, there's a RIDICULOUS budget that covers all of the electeds' sexual misconduct trials and payouts AND keeps them silenced. I forget what it's called now. Just obscene.
